A few of David G. Hallman's Previous Books

Spiritual Values for Earth Community

Contemporary threats to the earth and to human life suggest that for many people today, the predominant values are consumerism, economic globalization and violence, life-styles which unleash potent destructive forces. Hallman posits an alternate view of how we could live our lives and structure economies based on values such as gratitude, humility, sufficiency, justice, love, peace, faith and hope. Case studies are present of how individuals and groups are seeking to put these values into practice. Suggestions for group study and a bibliography enhance the value of this book for local study groups.

Ecotheology — Voices from South and North 

Ecotheology: Voices from South and North is a watershed mark in the Christian attempt to deal wholistically with our environmental crisis. It marks the dawn of the day in which the ecological movement in the Christian churches overcomes the suspicions of persons in the South that the embrace of ecology is only part of another attempt to strangle the economic progress of the poor. Rather, if the peoples of all the world do not seek to change their relationship to Earth, no people will survive. The five sections of Ecotheology are: The Biblical Witness, Theological Challenges, Insights from Ecofeminism, Insights from Indigenous Peoples, and Ethical Implications. Ecotheology is absolutely essential for the library of everyone concerned with the intertwining of ecological, justice, and theological concerns. -- Midwest Book Review

A Place in Creation: Ecological Visions in Science, Religion, and Economics 

Is there hope for the future of the Earth? David Hallman answers with a resounding yes. Hallman explores exciting new concepts in the fields of science, religion, and economics - concepts that have the power to transform our understanding of our relationship to the rest of Creation. He reveals how intrinsically connected humans are to the whole ecosystem; how God wills a harmonious relationship between ourselves and the rest of Creation; and how our economy could be restructured to function in a less destructive relationship with the environment. Finally, he assesses political realities that could constrain or facilitate movement towards a more sustainable type of society.
